AML and Compliance in the BVI: Practical Application of the 2026 Handbook

Description

This webinar will provide a practical review of the 2026 AML/CFT Code of Practice in the BVI and its implications for regulated entities. Attendees will gain insight into how the Financial Services Commission applies risk-based supervision and where TCSPs are most likely to face regulatory scrutiny. The session will examine common pitfalls in customer due diligence, monitoring, and record-keeping, with lessons drawn from recent enforcement actions. Practical guidance will be given on how to evidence compliance with the updated Code, including documenting decisions, training staff, and managing complex client relationships. Through real-world examples, the session will highlight what regulators expect to see in practice and how firms can build resilient compliance frameworks. By the end of the webinar, participants will understand how to apply the 2026 Handbook effectively and avoid common supervisory criticisms.
